Do not spray any textured materials containing particles or fibers such
as metallic paints, fire retardant paints.
Do not use sprayer outside if raining.
Do not use sprayer below garage floor or grade level.
Hazard: Injection Injury - the airless sprayer pumps materials at
high pressure and can pierce skin and underlying tissues, leading to
serious injury or amputation.
Do not treat injection injuries as a simple cut. Injection injuries can
lead to amputation. Seek a physician's help immediately.
Never aim the sprayer at any part of the body.
Never allow any part of the body to come into contact with liquid stream.
Never put hand in front of gun. Gloves will not prevent injection injuries.
Never leave sprayer unattended or plugged in while cleaning.
Never remove tip guard while spraying.
Hazard: Explosion or Fire - Stain and solvent fumes can explode or
ignite, causing property damage and/or severe injury.
Keep area well ventilated. Exhaust and introduce fresh air to keep
fumes from accumulating in work area.
Do not spray in areas where there are ignition sources, static
electricity sparks, pilot lights, heaters, hot objects, cigarettes, open
flames.
Have fire extinguishing equipment present and in good working order.
Follow safety instructions and warnings of material manufacturers.
Hazard: Hazardous Vapors - Stain, paints, solvents, insecticides,
varnishes, and other materials may be harmful if inhaled, causing
severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
Use a mask or respirator when spraying when there is a chance of
inhaling vapors.
Use protective eyewear.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The airless sprayer must be grounded. In the event of an electrical
short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by
providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is
equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
DANGER - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of
electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with
insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to
whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a normal 120 volt circuit, and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A. A
temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in sketches
B & C, may be used to connect the plug to a 2-pole receptacle as
shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adapter should only be used until a properly grounded
outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green
colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be
connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet
box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a
metal screw.
Attention: The temporary adapter shown in sketch B and C is not for use in
Canada. Use only a grounded outlet with this unit.
Extension Cords
Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug
and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug. Make sure your
extension cord is UL/ETL/CSA listed and is in good condition. When
using an extension cord, be sure to use one that is heavy enough for
the current - for lengths less than 50 feet use a #18 AWG. or heavier,
for more than 50 feed use #16 AWG. If in doubt use a heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and possible
damage to the product.
Make sure unit is clean and dry before storing. Store in a dry location.
The electrical cord should not be crimped during storage to prevent
damage.
